Detailed explanation-1: -Hamlet tells Horatio again that he is dying, and urges his friend not to commit suicide in light of all the tragedies, but instead to stay alive and tell his story. He says that he wishes Fortinbras to be made King of Denmark; then he dies.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hamlet tells horatio to let his story live because he knows that he is about to die and his story is one that can be related to. I believe Hamlet asks Horatio to tell his story because he wants people to know the real story. He wants a legacy of him especially to be left behind, and he doesn’t want to be forgotten.
Detailed explanation-3: -As Gertrude dies, Laertes, himself dying, discloses his and Claudius’s plot against Hamlet. Hamlet kills Claudius. Before Hamlet dies, he asks Horatio to tell the full story that has led to these deaths and gives Fortinbras his support for the kingship.
Detailed explanation-4: -When Hamlet finally does die, Horatio is holding him, and gives him a farewell of infinite tenderness: ‘Now cracks a noble heart. Good night, sweet prince, / And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest’ (5.2. 397-98).
